{"product_id":"the-view-from-everywhere-helen-yetter-chappell-9780197795026","title":"The View from Everywhere: Realist Idealism Without God","description":"Few contemporary philosophers take idealism seriously. \u003cem\u003eThe View from Everywhere\u003c\/em\u003e aims to change this, developing a new quasi-Berkeleyan realist idealism, which does not depend upon God to do the metaphysical heavy lifting. This non-theistic idealism requires a fresh approach to the persistence and stability of the physical world. The resulting theory offers unique accounts of the nature of perception and the relationship between our minds and our bodies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhen we peel away all the attributes of God that aren't essential for ensuring the stability of the world, we're left with a simpler and more intelligible metaphysical picture. On the resulting view, reality is a vast unity of consciousness that binds together experiences as-of every object from every perspective: a \"tapestry\" woven out of experiential \"threads.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHelen Yetter-Chappell seeks to fully flesh out this idealist metaphysics in a way that lets us make sense of the structure of reality and the deliverances of scientific inquiry, to consider the relationship between our minds and reality within an idealist framework, and to show that there are distinctive benefits to embracing idealism - benefits that should lead us to reassess our commitment to the materialist orthodoxy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Helen Yetter-Chappell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0197795021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780197795026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/16\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Helen Yetter-Chappell","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46795318690047,"sku":"9780197795026","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_20a0200a-9c52-4135-9bdd-b0f61d5311d8.jpg?v=1744947240","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-view-from-everywhere-helen-yetter-chappell-9780197795026","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
